THE DIVORCED HEIRESS’S REVENGE - Season 6 Episode 62

Shannon’s eyes bulged as she asked, “Why?”

“I think it’s in your best interest not to ask about the details, Mom.”

Bethany found it hard to approach the subject.

“Quit stammering. Just tell me.”

Bethany shuddered, bit the bullet, and said, “Word from Sharon is that she will never dress a questionable and scandalous individual in her clothes. She doesn’t want to damage her own reputation.”

She tried her best to word her sentence diplomatically because

Sharon said the worst things.

Shannon’s pride as the wife of a corporation chairman held no weight..

“Damn it. That’s outrageous.”

Flying into a rage, Shannon shoved the expensive cosmetic products. off the vanity dresser. “It’s just a stupid dress. Who does she think she is? I can still beat Celeste any time of the day, even without a

dress from Sharon.”

Silence befell the room.

“D-Dad?”

Bethany was thrown off by Gregory’s presence at the door.

Shannon turned back and saw her partner looking glum. She cried out coyly in a fluster. “Greg, are you back from your business trip? When did you get back? Why-”

“What’s all this about now? Why did you trash the room?” Gregory glanced at the mess and asked with a frown.

“I asked Sharon, a top designer, to design a birthday gown for me, but

she wouldn’t do it, and that would be the end of it. However, she

insulted me. How was I supposed to let it go?”

Shannon ran and hugged Gregory in tears. Even Bethany was impressed by the depth and versatility of her mother’s advances.

“Greg, I’m your wife. I represent you and Salvador Corporation. Sharon

is basically putting you and the company down through me. You

must stand up for me and get her canceled. Show her the

consequences of upsetting your woman.”

“Get her canceled? She’s a designer with international fame. I doubt I

have any influence outside the city.” Gregory’s tone was stiff.

In the past, Gregory often found Shannon’s little tantrums adorable,

and he would do anything for her.

Lately, Shannon has caused many irreversible troubles. It had not

been long since the last incident, and she was at it again. Gregory felt

that Shannon had not been sensible or lived up to his expectations as

the wife of a corporation president.

“I… I…” Shannon had nothing to say about herself. She was angry and

hurt.

“Give us some room, Bethany. I need a word with your mother.”

“Sure, Dad.” Bethany slipped out.

She found her mother unpredictable and hard to approach now.

Bethany wondered if Shannon was experiencing a mid-life crisis.

Once the door was closed, Shannon pulled herself together and murmured, “Did you have time to review the guest list I sent you,

Greg?”

“Here’s a question for you, Shannon. Why did you move the birthday. party to the weekend instead of keeping it to the date of your actual birthday?”

Gregory was not too pleased to learn the news while abroad. “You

should know that Wyatt’s third wife is having a birthday celebration on the same day. You insist on having yours on that day to one-up her, right?”

Shannon bit her lip.

“Since you’re not saying anything, I assume that I’m right.”

Gregory gently pushed her away, feeling baffled by the whole thing.

The bad blood between you two happened more than two decades

ago. You have retired from the public eye, and the past is long.

forgotten. Why are you trying to best her? Are you trying to start something by reminding the public about the miserable past?

“What does the miserable past have to do with me?”

With a menacing look, Shannon burst out laughing. “Celeste was the

one humiliated and shamed. I’m just trying to remind everybody of

the star I once was.”

“You’re being unreasonable.”

“Unreasonable? Am I being unreasonable, or are you feeling guilty,

Greg?” Shannon’s resentment was reflected in her bloodshot eyes.

“What are you saying?” Gregory scowled.

“I bet you still favor Celeste. Rumors that you two were dating were

all over the papers twenty years ago.”
